Jubiter is no longer issuing cards, but they still let people apply for them. Be careful. Who knows what they do with your KYC documents.

I don't know much about Jubiter. But in the past I had bad experience with some of these prepaid credit cards, that can be loaded with Bitcoin. In one case, the card was working fine for almost one and half years but they blocked my card immediately after I loaded it with $2,000. There is not much that you can do when something like this happens.

Out of curiosity what is the issuer for Wirex?

Bitwala uses a German bank as issuer (SolarBank) for the card and account, with the government guarantee on funds up to 100k€. I complain about banks but their products are great!  Cheesy

If they dealt with any other crypto company there'd be cards everywhere just like Wavecrest. I'll guess they might have learnt their lesson and would want to keep a tight grip on who issues them. We'll see.

These cards are most of the time issued by the same company so there isn't much difference. I'm not sure why people keep trying multiple cards to be honest.

That was certainly the case when Wavecrest was around. I don't think it is now. I don't think Wirex's provider deals with anyone else and I'll guess that card issuers will be much more discerning in future.

I've never heard of this card before and none of the Trustpilot reviews mention the card, only the exchange. Since there's no discussion here already I wouldn't bother myself. If you're in the EU then go Wirex. It's pretty crappy too but at least there's plenty of track record.

I couldn't find many details about this company, and I don't think you should take the risk and give your identity away to a newly created service. Instead, check the cards that are already in the market. The best service right now is Wirexapp for EU and Bitpay for U.S. If your country is not supposed by the current existing services, It's very unlikely that you will find a service that support it.

There seems to be a lot of ads recently for them, exchange and prepaid card that can be loaded with bitcoin and litecoin.

However, I don't see any meaningful discussions about them in the community.

Does anyone know these guys?

Trustpilot reviews are extremely mixed bag as well.

If you know anything about them, please do share Smiley
